Lubbock? Every single thing I've heard about that place is bad, I've come to think of it as a wretched hive of scum and villainy.

This is as stupid as when the Moonbats claimed Bush and Darth Cheney would do the same thing. I guess both sides have their share of them.

Some days I ponder if some people in the US actually want another civil war.

Hmm. Doesn't look like the sheriff is backing him up.

Quote:

Sheriff Kelly Rowe told KJTV there had been no conversation about such a civil war scenario. The two have discussed contingencies for emergency management, he said.

And it appears that Head was pissed off about tax increases which were, ironically, aimed at increased funding for law enforcement. It also seems that the public and the county commissioner aren't crazy about the statement.

Quote:

County Commissioner Gilbert Flores told KJTV he was "ashamed" of Head's remarks, and told the judge, "I think you better plan to go fishing pretty soon."

Quote:

Attorney Rod Hobson jokingly put up U.N. flags outside his Lubbock office, KJTV reported. "When I saw the story I thought, once again, Lubbock is going to be the laughingstock of the entire nation," said Hobson. "What makes it so sad is he is our elected county judge, who is in charge of a multi-million dollar budget. That is scary. It's like the light's on, but no one is home... I'd just like to think he's off his meds."

Seems like another of those 'freak show' stories to me, and not indicative of general sentiment.

It was a typo, his name isn't Tom it is Richard.
